Re: Automatically restore now playing list after exit

Yes, but I happened to come across this playlist by clicking on "play" once I
start up WMP11 (which brings up last played) and clicking on the drop-down
list (shown as Last Played) above your list of songs (in Now Playing view)
and select "Save Playlist As" which brings up the folder that contains
lastplayed.wpl!

That's very interesting. Thanks for the tip. It's just too bad that WMP 11
itself doesn't seem to know that tip, huh?

I have done some testing on this behavior. While some will tell you that
the list is remembered - simply click Play and it will pick up where it
was,
my test results were different.

What Windows Media Player does if you open it anew and click Play is to
randomly generate a new playlist containing a fixed 8 hours worth of
music.
Based on my library, that's usually about 130 to 136 songs - depending on
whether it gets the long version of In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida or not. :)

The Windows Media Player product team chose not to support nearly as much
personalization in WMP 11 as was available in previous versions.
